During the “Week of the Referee” from October 19-27, nine Swiss sports federations are calling on athletes and spectators to show more respect towards referees—both on and off the field. This week of action has been initiated by the “cool and clean” prevention program of Swiss Olympic.

Together with the “cool and clean” prevention program from Swiss Olympic, the federations want to thank the referees for their commitment and remind spectators and players that fair behavior towards them is essential, both in and outside of sports.

No referee, no game

During the “Week of the Referee,” we want to put our referees in the spotlight, as games can only take place thanks to their often voluntary efforts. We say THANK YOU!
